Choosing a granite sealer can be a cause of frustration for many homeowners trying to decipher all the mixed messages about sealing granite countertops coming from every corner of the stone industry. To help cut through the clutter CountertopSpecialty.com now offers a simple solution with a do-it-yourself granite sealer kit featuring SenGuard for the most advanced and permanent stain protection available.

Dallas, TX (PRWEB) -- Choosing a granite sealer can be a cause of frustration for many homeowners trying to decipher all the mixed messages about sealing granite countertops coming from every corner of the stone industry.

Previously the SenGuard™ permanent protection sealer was available only as an upgrade option on pre-treated granite or by professional application.

"SenGuard™ proved very easy to apply with little time or effort involved, so a do-it-yourself kit makes a lot of sense. There's definitely a demand for it and there's nothing else like it out in the marketplace. So, now homeowners can get all the benefits and durability of a superior sealer at roughly half the price of professional application," notes Ryan Burden of CountertopSpecialty.com.

The new do-it-yourself SenGuard™ Permanent Granite Sealer Kit can be purchased online only at CountertopSpecialty.com and comes complete with the natural stone sealer, instructional DVD, step-by-step booklet, applicator and finishing cloth.

The SenGuard™ sealer leads the revolutionary development of next-generation marble and granite sealers utilizing cutting-edge nano-technology to permit deeper penetration for more complete coverage and effectiveness. Once absorbed, SenGuard™ employs specialized molecules that form permanent bonds with the stone changing the "surface tension" to create an impenetrable barrier that repels all oils and liquids preventing absorption and staining.

The SenGuard™ sealer technology represents a major advance beyond what top granite sealers could do just a short while ago. Prior generation sealers relied on resins to establish a physical barrier by clogging the pores of the stone. The large molecules used in such sealers do not penetrate or bond as well leading to degradation from common cleaners requiring repeated sealer applications to maintain stain protection.

Since SenGuard™ forms permanent molecular bonds with the stone it is not affected by cleaners or susceptible to degradation and needs only one application simplifying the process of sealing granite countertops and reducing maintenance costs.

SenGuard™ allows the stone to breath and does not change the color. It is UV resistant and can be applied outdoors as well. SenGuard™ can be used for sealing marble and granite countertops, as a tile sealer, concrete sealer, for sealing grout, sealing travertine and all other porous surfaces.

"We're very excited to offer this product that serves a real need. There's certainly some confusion and mystery out in the marketplace and online about the whole topic of sealing granite countertops, but there needn't be. It isn't complicated or difficult and this kit proves that. It eliminates the guess-work and makes sealing a snap. Plus, it's a great value, which I think is certainly appreciated by consumers in today's economic environment," said Burden.

SenGuard™ is produced for Cosentino, the manufacturer of Silestone quartz countertops, for application on their Sensa™ granite. Cosentino developed the granite sealer do-it-yourself kit and chose to partner with top online marble and granite countertop consumer guide CountertopSpecialty.com to retail the new kits for 40% to 70% less than the typical cost of professional application.

"We're certainly happy to team up with Cosentino/Silestone and glad they chose us as their outlet for the SenGuard™ granite sealer kits. They're a great company with excellent products that we've recommended for a long time now and the kits have been extremely popular already," said Burden.
